Staff has great tequila recommendations and won't steer you wrong. Save room for food! The tacos are all phenomenal and so is the mole. Owners Larry and Aaron definitely have a gem here.
Tim MuddJune 5, 2011If you're here on Saturday, the Yucatan Stew Special is INCREDIBLE. Here on a date? Start with some chips/guacamole/salsa, share the stew and you'll both be feeling a little more romantic afterwards.
Stephen SandersJanuary 22, 2013Amazing happy hour. The best tequila bar I've ever been too. Great street tacos. One of my favorite places in San Diego.
DanaSeptember 18, 2016Tequila Tequila & more Tequila... Or get a beer👼🏻 Their's a patio and great food! Awesome Bartenders.. #1
Silpa SApril 16, 2017Amazing place! Yucatán stew is mind blowing. Get some mezcal, talk to the staff and just chill.
Hillary FolsomFebruary 5, 2020Amazing tequila choices and an awesome happy hour Tuesday-Friday 12-6. Definitely one of my favorite spots 👏
SalAugust 4, 2017I am not an expert in margaritas nor in tequilas but I think the best margarita I 've tried is the house margarita here- Stephen SandersAugust 17, 2011This is the best Mexican in San Diego and that's saying something. Shrimp tacos are killer but, of course, the star here is the sprawling tequila menu.
Carnitas tacos. Spicy Diabla margaritas. The house tomato-based tequila chaser/Michelada mix. ¡Mmm-exican!
Treven FelecianoJune 2, 2014Great place with awesome staff. Can't wait till next time. Love the margaritas.
Small batch mezcal. Fantastic staff. Ask for the habanero sauce!
Carlos AApril 5, 2011Tasty Street Tacos and Margarita specials. Great tequila selection. Try the Fortaleza Tequila and the Diplomatico Rum
- Try the Red Chile Pork Tamale - Fortaleza marg to go with. One of the BEST places to be on a Monday.
- Try the Mahi Mahi Tacos - 3 giant street tacos for $6. Nuff said.
Justin VegaApril 25, 2013The happy hour is great. But they overcharge you for chips salsa and guacamole. Its not worth $8.50
